A little over 10 years ago, the concept of the scooter was introduced to the outdoor scene.
Suddenly it wasn't cool to do something like walk, you needed to be zipping along on your own little wheeled platform.
But, let's be completely honest here. In the past 10 years, when you've seen something like this, does it really look like it's all that exciting? Really?

I'll stick with walking, thanks.
Unless you're talking about a scooter that's not just a simple scooter. Because if you're talking about the next generation of scooter, one that is versatile, built to last, comfortable, and includes the most fun propulsion technology around, then I'll definitely take that ride.
In that case, you're talking about the innovative and original Rockboard Scooter.

The Rockboard Scooter is available in the Original size for ages 8+ (up to 200 pounds) and a Mini version, for ages 5+ (up to 90 pounds). You can easily get the entire family zooming down the block!
When the Original Rockboard Scooter arrived, I was more than excited to open the box and try this entertaining ride out for myself.

Other than hooking the two handlebar pieces together and customizing the height of it so that it is just right for you, the main adjustment knob at the base of the scooter determines which mode you are placing it in (classic push-scooter or super-cool propulsion). After tightening that into place...


The first time I gave the Rockboard Scooter a push, I wobbled around on it so much that I wasn't sure that I would ever have enough balance to actually go for a ride. However, after another attempt or two, I had the hang of it and was amazed at just how easy it was to shift my weight from my front foot to my back foot to keep the entire thing moving.
You've really got to try this!
If you're reading this in your inbox, come over to the post to see the video!
With the generous size of this scooter, how easy it is to ride (once you try it, you'll find that keeping your balance is just like riding a bike), the convenience of the hand brake, and how extremely fun it is overall, you really will be hooked. It began to snow on the day my husband was taking video and pictures for me and I told him he could go back inside but I wanted to keep on riding!

Not only have I been impressed with just how much fun this is when I'm rocking it back and forth and zooming down the street, I appreciate how quickly I am able to switch from the Rockboarding mode to the low-profile kick scooter mode. By pulling out the quick-release knob right under the platform...


Plus, when it comes time to put your Rockboard Scooter away, it only takes a few more minutes to fold it up and lock it closed for easy storage. It is quite a bit heavier than other scooters, but then again, other scooters don't have anywhere near the really cool technology that this one does.

Retailing for $200 at retail locations worldwide or online from Target.com or Amazon, the Rockboard Scooter comes in white, orange, blue and pink (the Mini Scooter retails for $159 and is available in white, blue and pink). Although this is a higher price

Besides, if the options for tweens and teens are between a Rockboard Scooter and over-priced electronics and video games that will stick kids to the couch, I would go for this innovative alternative any day.
The only thing that I have been disappointed in after trying out this hybrid scooter is that I live in a climate where I won't be able to use it soon! But you can bet that it will be one of the first things that I'm going to pull out once the snow is gone next spring... not to mention it might get a ride or two around our house on the hardwood floors in the meantime...
And, thanks to the generosity of M-Y Products, the creators of the Rockboard, one person will be able to see just why I'm lacing up my shoes and heading outside for another ride as soon as possible, because...
One lucky person will win an Original Rockboard Scooter!
